Lets just hope they are interested in US/Canadian distribution you mean! I e-mailed the makers of the Milan, and got back a reply in German saying they have no North American distributors and don't plan to market the Milan here. If you buy a European model, you have to have a European standard power outlet in your home. I think it is 220V @ 30-40 amps compared to American standard 110V @ 20-30 amps. Most states will not allow an electrician to install this kind of outlet in a residence because of the danger of electrocution and fire. Failing that, the technically oriented might be able to swap out the power supply for a standard PC clone type power supply assuming the Milan motherboard uses the same voltages as a PC.
